On Jan 1, the Supreme Court was informed that the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has recovered Rs67 million from Pakistani citizens holding undisclosed foreign bank accounts and properties abroad.
During the proceedings, the FBR informed the bench that Aleema Khan has not yet paid taxes/fine Rs. 29.4 million, however she could pay it till January 13. The Chief Justice observed that money should be recovered so country’s economy could further improve.
“We are entrusting FBR with the responsibility to bring wealth back to the country,” Justice Nisar remarked.
